Chapter 187 Chapter 187 - Rankings

Aiden was now in the middle of the Arena and he noticed that there weren't many people left in the stands which made sense because Aiden had spent loads of time in the trial, so it made sense that they weren't around anymore.

He glanced around himself and noticed that Lucius was nowhere to be found, so his first thought was that he had either died by failing the trial or that he had already left the arena knowing that he had lost.

Then, he noticed that there were a lot of people who had finished their trial which is why he started to look around himself counting everyone who was around him.

"One, two, three..., twelve. Everyone already finished it," mumbled Aiden, quietly.

'Then, what are we waiting for? Where are the four heads?' thought Aiden, as he didn't want to spend too much time here in the middle of the Arena.

He preferred being as far away as he could from the Nightshades and staying here, especially after his fight with Lucius wasn't the thing that he preferred if he were to be honest.

He didn't know if Lucius had told his father about the Reaper, but he could only hope that he didn't in the scenario that he was still alive.

There was also the fact that he would have to announce to Maelis and Emma that he would be leaving the Everheart Family, it wasn't something that he wanted to do as all they had done was help him.

But, Aiden knew that it was the right choice to join a founding family, he knew that they would be able to protect if the Nightshades were to attack, and that wasn't the case with the Everheart since they weren't powerful enough.

However, he still worried about what their reactions would be.

Would they be mad?

Would they understand?

'Well, they would understand if they knew my reasons,' thought Aiden.

However, he knew that he couldn't tell them as he couldn't risk it. What if they started spreading the word that Aiden was part of the Nightshades and that he had abandoned?

It would simply be a really bad situation if he were to be honest.

Then, as he continued to have all those thoughts, the four founding families' heads appeared.

'Wait, why aren't they four?' thought Aiden, as he couldn't spot the Nightshade Family Patriarch.

He wasn't with Melinda and the rest.

Aiden didn't understand why, but something clicked in his mind.

'It must be related to Lucius,' thought Aiden, now sure that Lucius hadn't died and that he was probably with his father talking about who knows what.

"You guys did a pretty good job," said Thorin with a big smile on his face.

The faces of the participants were ones that showed clear annoyance toward Thorin, however, they didn't even bother speaking up.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? Did you like the surprise in there?" asked Thorin, clearly happy that he had succeeded in fooling all of them.

However, still, none of the participants had the guts to speak up, not even the ones of were part of Thorin's family.

"Well, I'll take that as a yes, ahaha," said Thorin, as he started laughing out loud.

But, then after laughing for a couple of seconds, he became serious once again, as he received a hit from Melinda, indicating that he needed to stop this whole thing.

"Right, now onto the rankings. Isn't everyone here wondering who performed the best in their trials?"

This time, the participants all replied with a short clear and concise "Yes.".

"Then, I will now announce the Rankings given by the system," said Thorin, as he seemed to be looking at his system and not at the people who were in front of him right now.

"Alright, I'll start from the bottom all the way to the top," muttered Thorin as he cleared his throat.

*Um*

*Um*

"In last place is a surprise that no one would have expected. It's Lucius Nightshade as he failed his trial."

The few people who were still in the crowd were shocked by this news as Lucius was supposed to be the winner of this whole thing.

In fact, there shouldn't be anyone part of the founding families capable of beating him, especially after he showed his prowess in the duels before the trial.

However, it wasn't only the crowd everyone was shocked, well, everyone except one person Aiden since he had literally killed Aiden.

Then, Thorin started announcing the other participants' positions, saying how the system had graded their performance in the trial.

It was quite simple, the performance basically ranked from F to S, S being the best and F being the worst one could get.

The eleventh place got a C which was too bad nor too great, simply average. He was also part of the Emberbane family, the one that Melinda owned.

Then, he went to talk about the tenth all the way to the third place without stopping once simply calling out all of their grades.

The fourth place, which was part of Thorin's family had gotten an A- which was honestly quite good considering that the best one could get was an S.

"Now, it's finally time to talk about the top three of this tournament. With much surprise, someone from a middle-level family is still in the race to be the winner of this whole tournament," announced Thorin, as cheers could be heard from the crowd.

Hearing those shouts, Aiden turned his head toward the crowd as he thought that he had recognized those voices, and when he saw the faces of the people who had just shouted, he smiled.

However, his smile couldn't be seen with the Reaper Mask that was on his face.

It was obviously, Emma and Maelis who had been shouting.

It seemed that Emma had found her way to the crowd.

"Now it's time to announce the third place of the Inter Family Tournament."
